< Revelation 17 >
1 One of the seven angels, who had [one of] the seven bowls, came to me. He said to me, “Come [with me], and I will show you how [God] will punish the very evil [city that is represented by] [SYM] a prostitute, a city in which there are many canals [of] water.
१मग त्या सात वाट्या घेणारे जे सात देवदूत होते त्यांच्यातला एक येऊन माझ्याशी बोलला आणि म्हणाला, “ये, त्या अनेक जलांवर जी बसली आहे त्या महावेश्येचा न्यायनिवाडा मी तुला दाखवतो.
2 [It is as though] the rulers of earth have acted immorally [and idolatrously] with the people of that city [MET], and they [have persuaded people] who live on the earth to act immorally [and idolatrously] with them [MET], [just like a prostitute persuades men to drink] the [strong] wine [she gives them, resulting in their] becoming drunk [and] then committing sexual immorality. with her.”
२पृथ्वीच्या राजांनी तिच्याबरोबर जारकर्म केले आणि पृथ्वीवर राहणारे तिच्या जारकर्माच्या द्राक्षरसाने मस्त झाले.”
3 Then, as [God’s] Spirit [controlled me], the angel carried me away to a desolate area. There I saw a woman who was sitting on a red beast. The beast had names [written] all over itself. They were names that (insulted/spoke evil against) [God]. The beast had seven heads and ten horns.
३तेव्हा दूताने मला पवित्र आत्म्यामध्ये अरण्यात नेले; आणि मला एका किरमिजी रंगाच्या पशूवर बसलेली एक स्त्री दिसली. तो देवनिंदात्मक नावांनी भरलेला होता आणि त्यास सात डोकी व दहा शिंगे होती.
4 The woman [that I saw] was wearing purple and red [clothes]; and gold, precious stones, and pearls were fastened to her [clothes and her body]. She held in her hand a golden cup. The cup was full of [a liquid that represents] [SYM] the detestable/disgusting, idolatrous things and filthy immoral things that she [does].
४त्या स्त्रीने जांभळी व किरमिजी वस्त्रे नेसून, सोन्याचा व मोलवान रत्नांचा, मोत्ये ह्यांचा साज घातला होता. तिच्या हातात, अमंगळ गोष्टींनी व व्यभिचाराने भरलेला एक सोन्याचा प्याला होता;
5 This name, that has a hidden/secret [meaning], was written on her forehead: “[This woman is] Babylon, the very evil [city! She acts like] the mother of the prostitutes on the earth. She teaches them to [act] immorally and to worship idols.”
५तिच्या कपाळावर लिहिलेले नाव एक रहस्य होते, महान बाबेल, पृथ्वीवरील वेश्यांची व अमंगळ गोष्टींची आई.
6 I saw that the woman had become drunk as a result of drinking the blood of God’s people, those who had told others about Jesus. When I saw her, I was very bewildered/perplexed.
६आणि मी बघितले की, ती स्त्री पवित्रजनांच्या रक्ताने व येशूसाठी हुतात्मे झालेल्यांचे रक्त पिऊन मस्त झाली होती आणि तिला बघताच मी मोठा आश्चर्यचकित झालो.
7 The angel said to me, “Do not be bewildered [RHQ]! I will explain to you the hidden/secret meaning of the woman and of the beast on which she rides, the beast that has the seven heads and the ten horns.
७तेव्हा तो देवदूत मला म्हणाला, “तू आश्चर्यचकित का झालास? मी तुला या स्त्रीचे आणि जो पशू तिला पाठीवर वाहतो, ज्याला सात डोकी आणि दहा शिंगे आहेत त्या पशूचे रहस्य सांगतो.
8 The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit). [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] (from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began). (Abyssos )
८आणि तू जो पशू बघितलास, जो होता आणि नाही, जो अगाधकूपात येईल आणि नाशात जाईल आणि जगाच्या स्थापनेपासून ज्यांची नावे जीवनाच्या पुस्तकात लिहिलेली नाहीत असे पृथ्वीवर राहणारे त्या पशूला पाहतील तेव्हा आश्चर्य करतील कारण तो होता, नाही आणि येणार आहे. (Abyssos )
9 Those who [think] wisely [can understand] this: The seven heads [of the beast] on which the woman sits [symbolize] the seven hills [of the city that the woman represents]. They also [symbolize] seven rulers.
९इथे ज्ञानी मनाचे काम आहे. ती सात डोकी, ही ती स्त्री ज्यांवर बसली आहे. ते सात डोंगर आहेत;
10 Five [of those rulers] have died. One is [still alive]. The seventh [ruler] has not yet come. When he comes, he must remain on earth for [only] a short [time].
१०आणि सात राजे आहेत, पाच पडले आहेत, एक आहे आणि दुसरा अजून आलेला नाही; आणि तो आल्यावर त्यास फारच थोडा वेळ रहावे लागेल.
11 The beast that [lived] before and then was not [alive] will be the eighth [ruler]. He will be [evil like] the seven [rulers were, but God] will surely destroy him.
११आणि तो जो पशू होता आणि नाही, तो आठवा राजा आहे; तो सातांपासून झालेला आहे; आणि नाशात जात आहे.
12 The ten horns that you saw [represent] ten rulers who have not yet begun to rule. They, together with the beast, will be authorized to rule [people for only a short time, as if it were] [MET] for one hour.
१२आणि तू बघितलीस ती दहा शिंगे दहा राजे आहेत. त्यांना अजून राज्य मिळाले नाही; पण त्यांना त्या पशूबरोबर, एक घटका राजांसारखा अधिकार मिळतो.
13 Those [rulers] will all agree to do the same thing. [As a result] they will give to the beast their power [to rule people] as well as their authority [to rule people] [DOU].
१३ते एकमताचे आहेत, ते आपले सामर्थ्य आणि आपला अधिकार पशूला देतात.
14 The rulers and the beast will fight against [Jesus], the [one who is like a] lamb. He will defeat them, because he is Lord [who rules over all other] lords and the King [who rules over all other] kings. Those [people] who are with [and helping him] are the ones whom [God] has chosen, and who keep [serving him] faithfully.”
१४ते कोकऱ्याशी युद्ध करतील आणि कोकरा त्यांना जिंकील कारण तो प्रभूंचा प्रभू आणि राजांचा राजा आहे; आणि जे त्याच्याबरोबर आहेत ते बोलावलेले, निवडलेले आणि विश्वासू आहेत.”
15 Then the angel said to me, “The waters that you saw in the city where the prostitute sits represent people-[groups], multitudes [of people], nations, and [speakers of many languages] [MTY].
१५आणि तो मला म्हणतो, तू जे पाण्याचे प्रवाह बघत आहेस, ज्यांवर ती वेश्या बसली आहे, ते निरनिराळे समाज, समुदाय आणि राष्ट्रे आणि निरनिराळ्या भाषा बोलणारे लोक आहेत.
16 The ten horns that you saw [represent rulers] [SYM]. They and the beast will hate [the people in the city] [MTY] that the prostitute [represents]. As a result, they will [take away everything that is in the city, as if] they were [MET] leaving it naked. They will [destroy it as if] [MET] devouring flesh/meat, and they will burn it with fire.
१६आणि तू बघितलीस ती दहा शिंगे आणि तो पशू त्या वेश्येचा द्वेष करतील. तिला ओसाड आणि नग्न करतील, तिचे मांस खातील आणि तिला अग्नीत जाळतील.
17 They will do that because God has caused them to decide to do what he wants them to do. As a result, they will let the beast have their power to rule until what God has said is fulfilled {until [they] fulfill what God has said} [MTY].
१७कारण त्यांनी एकमनाचे होऊन देवाची वचने पूर्ण होईपर्यंत, त्याची इच्छा पूर्ण करायला आपले राज्य पशूला द्यावे हे देवाने त्यांच्या मनात घातले आहे.
18 The prostitute that you saw [represents] the very evil city [whose leaders] [MTY] rule over the kings of the earth.”
१८आणि जी स्त्री तुला दिसली ती पृथ्वीच्या राजांवर राज्य करणारी मोठी नगरी आहे.
